Classy venue for classic Quebecois dishes. The waitstaff goes above & beyond, from cooking steaks at your table to making special events memorable. The maple syrup pie & peppercorn steak were exquisite.

This is the epitome of a classic old school restaurant. The waitstaff in white coats, most menu items prepared table side... all of the flambes!! My shrimp were fresh & beautifully cooked table side & the presentation was also gorgeous & very old school. A very nice change of pace from all of the trendy restaurants everywhere these days. The service was lovely, if not a touch rushed (which is why I took off one star). The complimentary cookies after dinner were a nice touch.

Wonderful atmosphere, wonderful service, wonderful food, excellent wine list, a very happy experience beginning with the coat check to exiting the restaurant hours later. Classic cuisine & classic white coat service, we highly recommend this restaurant.

We loved this restaurant. It was pretty pricey but worth every cent. A lovely classic interior & wonderful Caesar salad & canard a la orange both prepared table side. Devine chocolate mousse to finish.

Terrific experience! Very classic French cuisine in a lovely setting. Our waiter was exceptionally good & we are so grateful to him. I never got his name but I had a coughing fit when I arrived (very embarrassing in the age of Covid) & he went into the kitchen & stirred up his mother's recipe--& it worked! He was so very kind & so very professional--& made a terrific Caesar salad & Duck a l'orange. His service absolutely made our evening!

From the initial warm welcome to the impeccable (& entertaining) service & the classic beautifully presented French dishes, we enjoyed another memorable evening at Le Continental. The following evening, after a disappointing dinner elsewhere, we skipped dessert & headed back to Le Continental. We were so grateful you were able to squeeze us in! We shared a cheese course, a repeat of the excellent Parmesan Fondue appetizer, the must-have Crepes Suzette, & an Inniskillen ice wine. Thank you for rescuing our evening! We will of course return the next time we visit Quebec.
